Ohio Lack of Oxygen Attorney
A birth should be a time of joy, not a time of sadness. If something went wrong during your child's birth, you want answers. If your child's brain was damaged during birth or you lost your infant to oxygen deprivation, I am ready to help you find answers and pursue justice.
I am Thomas D. Hunter, a Columbus birth injury/brain damage attorney. I have devoted my career to protecting the rights of injured individuals and their families. You should never have suffered this pain. Let me help you hold the negligent doctors accountable for it. Contact my Ohio law office by calling 888-818-3410 or sending an e-mail. I look forward to helping you on the path to recovery.
What Causes Infant Brain Damage?
Frequently, infant brain damage is caused by a delay in delivery. If a doctor does not perform a C-section in a timely fashion or otherwise respond to fetal distress, a baby can suffer hypoxia (oxygen does not reach the brain). Other causes of infant brain damage include:
- Failure to monitor mother or infant properly, including failure to monitor for fetal distress
- Complications during a C-section
- Medication errors
- Failure to diagnose medical conditions that could lead to brain damage
- Twisted or compressed umbilical cord
Recovering Financial Compensation for Today and Tomorrow
A traumatic brain injury/brain damage can lead to an infant's death or a lifetime of medical care and therapy. If your child suffered from oxygen deprivation at birth, you can bring a lawsuit to recover compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, future medical care and more. More importantly, you can hold the negligent parties accountable and help prevent other parents from experiencing the same anguish.
